  Does anyone know of a stash of Solaris binaries
since the sunfreesoftware
 site went pay for?
 I can't figure out their licensing, it seems really expensive, unless I
 misread it. A dollar a download is what I read now, which is more than I'd
 hope to pay, but I guess they need to generate revenue.
 I am interested in sparc solaris gnu tools, 10 and 11. also have some
 systems that I need 2.6, 2.7, or 2.8 as well.
 I have the installs, just want to get the gnu tools updated for these
 releases if anyone has them somewhere.
 thanks

  I think OpenCSW only supports Solaris 8+ now. Older packages from sunfreeware for
Solaris 2.5-2.7 (and up) are here...until they inevitably disappear some day:
